Since 2018, subreddits are allowed to appeal their quarantine.
In addition, quarantined subreddits do not appear in non-subscription based (aggregate) feeds such as r/all in order to prevent accidental viewing, do not generate revenue, and their user count is not visible. Visiting or joining a quarantined subreddit requires bypassing a warning prompt. In 2015, Reddit introduced a quarantine policy to make visiting certain subreddits more difficult. This started discussion in the media about the ethics of anonymity and outing on the Internet.

They spent the next nine months bouncing edits and ideas off one another about the edits, using photo editing programs to help produce the best image possible. McCarthy shot over 200,000 images focusing on the moon's details and Matherne shot another 500 to capture the vibrant colors.
